Any differences between Tuesday's and Friday's pilots? I thought I read that Dean Cain did well, but any format changes or anything? More throwbacks to the 80s version? Alan Kalter?

Different celebs--Kathy Najimi and Mo Rocca--but no changes to the format.

Except that if you Google it, you immediately get the answer.  Same with QFT.  Neither of these are remotely specific to our forum.

I'm not saying you shouldn't ask if you want to know, and I'm certainly not saying everybody should have the entire list of internet abbreviations memorized.  I'm just surprised people don't realize they can almost always find the answers themselves with virtually no effort at all.

No sh*t?  Let me clarify.  I meant figure it out on my own, using context.  QFT was looked up quite a while ago; I doubt I ever would have guessed "quoted for truth."  I was happy to discover I had figured out YMMV without looking it up.  Nothing to get huffy about.  Just another inconsequential rest stop on the information superhighway.

Clear now?

Any word on if the 7-11 and Mystery 7 bonuses survived, or are they using different bonus cards/no FG bonuses?

There's still 7-11, but no Mystery 7.

I've read conflicting reports, so I'll ask. Is Pyramid in the pilot stage or is this a go on CBS' schedule in September? I don't want to read through 31 pages to find out.

It is in the pilot stage, as of now.  I even informed one Pyramid fan through an e-mail that is just that right now.  However, in the event that it does go to series in September, and if does tape at Kaufman-Astoria in Queens, I gave him subway directions as to how to get to the studio.

Ouch, my incredibly fragile ego!  Some of us don't have thick hides, Mr. Armadillo.

\See what I did there?  One of the few members on the board where that joke works.

Nicely done.
This has been another installment of Matt Ottinger's Masters of the Obvious.
Stay tuned for all the obsessive-compulsive fun of Words Have Meanings.

Reviving the thread...
As of now, WUSA in Washington will not be carrying this at 3pm (if it happens), opting instead for the new syndicated series "Dr. Oz."  It won't be the first market to skip it, unfortunately.
